I've chased after rainbows, I've captured one or two

I've reached for the stars, I've even held a few

I've walked that lonesome valley, topped the mountains, saw the sky

I've laughed and I have cried, but I have always tried

I've always been a dreamer and dreams are special things

But dreams are of no value if they're not equipped with wings

So secure yourself for climbing, make ready for the flight

Don't let your chance go by, you'll make it if you try

So try to be the first one up the mountain

And try to be the first to touch the sky

And try to be the one who make a difference

Try to put your fear and doubt aside

And try to make the most of every moment

'Cause if you never try, you never win

So try each day to try a little harder

And if you fall, get up and try again

Try and try and try

Try and try and try

Nothing is impossible if you can just believe

Don't live your life in shackles when faith can be the key

The winner's one that keeps determination in his eyes

Who's not afraid to fly and not afraid to try

So try to be the first one up the mountain

And try to be the first to touch the sky

And try to count your blessings and keep counting

And try to soar where only eagles fly

And if you fail at first, just keep on trying

Boy, you are not a failure in God's eyes

The first step is the one that's always hardest

But you won't amount to much if you don't try

So spread your wings and let the magic happen

'Cause you'll never really know if you don't try

Try and try and try

You gotta try (Try and try and try)

Come give it a try (Try and try and try)

You have to try (Try)

Oh, life, it ain't easy, who ever said it was?

Life is hard, same as it ever was (Try)

You have to try (You have to try)

When you think you can't do it, just try a little harder

Just dig a little deeper and go a little farther but try (Try)

You have to try (Try)

Whatever it is, you're gonna get through it

Let the spirit lead you, I know you can do it

Just try (Try)

Just give it a try

And whenever you think you ain't gonna make it

Put a smile on your face, suck it up and take it for a while (Give it a try)

At least you'll know you tried (Give it a try)

Don't think I don't suffer, I know what I'm saying

When I get to that place, well, I start praying and I try

Lord knows I try

Yes, I try
